    What would you do? Brisket Dilemma

    I napped for about two hours after it went into the cooler.  When I woke I decided to put it in the fridge and let it rest until 3 when I pulled it out of the fridge.  I put it in an aluminum tray and put it back on the smoker with some of the juices from smoking. After it was reheated and...

    What would you do? Brisket Dilemma

    So I foiled it and put it into the cooler.  I need to get some sleep and a couple hours of cooler time will buy me a couple hours of sleep. So what I'm thinking is I'll unwrap this and put it back on the smoker about an hour before folks arrive. That would be 3PM.  It's now 6:15am I don't think...

    What would you do? Brisket Dilemma

    So now I really don't know what to do and think this may be a failure. Shortly after Midnight I went to sleep.  At 3AM all of my temp alarms started going off.  Apparently I have a hot spot that I wasn't aware of in my pellet smoker and this thing cooked much faster than I think it should...

    11PM check.  Sprayed some apple juice on it and stuck a probe into it. So far so good, no rain yet.

    What would you do? Brisket Dilemma

    So I've wedged a 10x10 popup tent under the edge of my garage eave and run the cord out in what I hope is a safe manner.  I'll post Qview as this progresses

    That is my concern. I run an extension cord from my garage to the pellet cooker and I'm worried that it might not be safe in a torrential downpour I'm also thinking of borrowing my business partners 10x10 popup and putting it under that.

    What would you do? Brisket Dilemma

    I have this beautiful Costco Prime 13lb brisket that has been rubbed down with garlic, CBP, kosher salt, paprika and coffee.  I've been looking forward to a nice overnight smoke since last fall. The problem is that I just turned on the news and the weather is calling for rain from midnight to...

    The "I'm Back!" smoke with QView

    And it was a Qview FAIL.  I completely forgot to take pics.  On the other hand the BBQ was a success.  My wife who usually dislikes pork said it was the best I had ever made.
